2. Figure 1 Ribbon Diagrams of PepV
(A) Stereo view of PepV. β sheets of the catalytic domain (bottom) and of the lid domain (top) are highlighted in blue and red, respectively. The phosphinic inhibitor AspΨ[PO2CH2]AlaOH is depicted as a stick model, and the two catalytic zinc ions of the PepV active center are represented as magenta spheres.
(B) Ribbon diagram of the catalytic domain of PepV. Strands, helices, and zinc ions are labeled in their order of appearance. The blue and the gray ball indicate the end of the first part and the beginning of the second part of the catalytic domain, respectively.
(C) Ribbon diagram of the lid domain of PepV. Strands and helices are labeled in their order of appearance. The red and the gray ball indicate the beginning and the end of the lid domain, respectively.

3. Figure 2 Structure-Based Sequence Alignment of PepV with AAP and CPG2
The secondary structural elements of PepV are shown above the amino acid sequence. The strictly conserved residues are colored in red, and similar residues are colored in blue. Strands and α helices are indicated by arrows and cylinders. Secondary structure elements present in the catalytic domains of AAP and CPG2 are shown in blue. Secondary structure elements shared between the PepV lid domain and the dimerization domain of CPG2 are shown in red, while elements only present in PepV are shown in beige. Zinc and substrate binding residues are marked by closed and open triangles, respectively. The catalytic Glu153 is highlighted by a red triangle.

4. Figure 3 Superposition of PepV with CPG2 and AAP
(A) Structures were superimposed using TOP. Stereo view is shown of the superposition of PepV (beige) with AAP (blue) and CPG2 (red) after optimal fit of the catalytic domains.
(B) Stereo view of the two catalytic zinc ions, the zinc binding residues, and the inhibitor of PepV (beige) superimposed with the zinc binding residues of AAP (blue) and CPG2 (red). Residues are numbered according to the PepV sequence. The catalytic water molecule of CPG2 is depicted in red (WAT).

5. Figure 4 Stereo Close-Up View of the PepV Active Site
(A) The phosphinic AspΨ[PO2CH2]AlaOH inhibitor is shown in blue (carbon atoms), red (oxygens), dark blue (nitrogens), and purple (phosphorus), while the surrounding PepV residues are colored in beige (carbons). The hydrogen bonding network and the zinc interactions are shown as dotted lines, with distances depicted in angstroms. Two water molecules that take part in the interaction with the inhibitor are shown in blue.
(B) Electron density around the bound inhibitor. The inhibitor (blue) and the PepV environment (beige) are shown as stick models. The 1.8 Å 2Fo-Fc simulated annealing omit map has been contoured at 1.3 σ.

6. Figure 5
Stereo View of the Active Site Environment of PepV with a Modeled Dipeptide
Surface representation of the active site. Most of the lid domain and some other residues have been omitted for clarity. Only zinc binding residues and some substrate binding residues are shown in blue below and above the semitransparent surface. The modeled and energy-refined Phe1-Phe2 dipeptide is shown as a stick model in beige. The location of the Phe2 side chain in the S1′ pocket is somewhat arbitrary.
